DISC SPRINGS

Disc Springs
This type of spring has a conical disk shape. This cone shape can be arranged in order to be flexible according to the properties of the spring. They can be stacked in the same direction or alternately. The disc spring may also be known as the Belleville Washer / Belleville Spring, after its inventor Julian F. Belleville. The properties of disc springs are unique for use in confined spaces but requiring high force. And there is very little movement or deflection of the spring. Today, the most common styles of disc springs are those with or without smooth contacts while other styles, such as disc springs with a trapezoidal cross section it is not commonly used nowadays.

Important features of disc springs are as follows:

Can support large loads with a small installation space.
It is strong, durable, and has a long service life if the spring size is used appropriately.
Stacking the disc springs in the same direction will make the springs stiffer. Conversely, if the disc spring is placed in alternating directions, the deflection of the spring will increase, which will weaken the spring. Therefore, the combined orientation of the disc spring allows the spring constant to be adjusted to suit the application.
